I am impressed by your stoker. Tackling the DR on a tandem is very gutsy but should be a lot of fun.
I see a lot of Diablo climbs for you in the coming months.
Yup, here's the email I got from them. Got to give them credit...they responded right away.

"Hi Dan:
We only had one registration process for the 2010 event. We had a misprint on our
ad - we apologize for any inconvenience. Other ways to get in:
become a sponsor, volunteer to ride, enter a training camp at Kirkwood.
You can also post a message on our message board. We had over
600 riders transfer their entries last year. You can also check ebay
and craigslist. Local bike shops and bike clubs also will post entries
for riders looking to transfer their spots. We do release no show spots
on Friday night but this isn't a guarantee. We have been able to
accommodate everyone who have wanted to ride in previous years.
Thank you for your interest.
Death Ride Staff"
